Journey with us into the colorful and thought-provoking world of Native American art with our special guest, Laura J. Allen. As the Curator of Native American Art at the Montclair Art Museum, Laura shares her fascinating journey from the American Museum of Natural History to her current role, where she spearheads groundbreaking projects. She sheds light on the collaborative vision behind the reinstallation of MAM's Native American Art Collection, crafted in close consultation with a Native American Art Advisory Council. Laura's passion for an artist-focused curatorial approach shines through in her work on exhibitions like Meryl McMaster Chronologies and From My Home to Yours, where themes of time disruption and inclusivity take center stage.We unravel the layers of creativity and cultural dialogue in exhibitions that merge historical and contemporary Native art forms, challenging colonial narratives and celebrating Indigenous knowledge. The episode features the thoughtful works of artists such as Holly Wilson and Nicholas Galanin, who engage with historical collections to critique misattributions and colonial suppression. Through powerful site-specific installations and narratives of dispossession and reconnection, the exhibitions aim to transform the museum space, fostering a dialogue between the past and present. With insights from creatives like Sine Austro and Sebastian Aubin, we explore how weaving serves as both a metaphor and a tool for storytelling in these exhibitions.Looking forward, the conversation also highlights the ongoing evolution of Indigenous textiles and fashion at MAM, emphasizing cultural expression and sovereignty. Laura delves into the complex process of selecting works from a vast collection while adhering to NAGPRA guidelines and collaborating with Indigenous communities. Exciting upcoming projects, such as a 2026 exhibition on Northwest Coast dress and textiles, promise to continue the museum's commitment to highlighting the transformative power of contemporary Native American art. Through these vibrant discussions, we emphasize our dedication to deepening responsibilities to Native communities and exploring the potential of future exhibitions to promote justice and environmental stewardship.

I've known Michael Higgins for 35+ years and he was actually one of the first dealers that I met in Tucson when I moved here. You see, Michael has been actively buying and selling Native American arts since 1972. Michael got out of the military after serving in Vietnam, and went directly into the buying and selling of Native American art. His area of expertise ranges from the contemporary to historic Native American art, especially beadwork.It was wonderful to get to actually spend some time talking to Michael. We live in the same town, but life gets in the way. We get busy. We don't get to see each other as much as we'd like to. Regardless, he's a unique individual with a unique approach to Native American material. He's seen a lot, and this podcast is all about his backstory and about the core components of this business.So it was interesting to hear his stories and about the things that he's done and how he sees his role in the arts. I had a great time. This is Michael Higgins on Art Dealer Diaries Podcast episode 307.

This week on Hidden Heritage, we delve into the remarkable story of the Gordon Bird family, a talented group of artists from South Dakota who have been defying the odds for nearly four decades. Known for their contributions to Native American art and music, the Birds have not only found a way to work and play together but have also paved the way for future generations of Native American artists across the country. Meet Gordon, Joanne, and Jackie Bird, a family whose artistic talents span visual arts, music, dance, and more. From their picturesque home on the north shore of Lake Campbell, they share their journey of blending traditional Native sounds with contemporary styles, creating a unique genre known as Indian blues rock. Join us as we explore their rich heritage, their artistic achievements, and their ongoing mission to promote unity, world peace, and global healing through their work. The Gordon Bird family's story is a testament to the resilience and creativity of Native American culture, offering inspiration to the next generation of performers.

Joining us for our annual preview of Santa Fe Indian Market is Mateo Romero, a contemporary painter whose works speak to the beauty and history of the American Southwest. We discuss some of that vital history today as we chat about the world-famous market, some of the historic sites around the Santa Fe Plaza and the union of three unqiue cultures, which has come to define much of Santa Fe and Northern New Mexico. Santa Fe Indian Market will be held on August 17 and 18, 2024, with other events happening throughout market week.

I had Terry DeWald on today. I've known Terry for over 30 years. He's a magnificent person and he's a dealer, but he's also an expert in Native American basketry and textiles, specifically Navajo. He's spent his entire life working with the Tohono O'Odham basket makers and knows them all very intimately and are a big part of  his life.I've been trying to get him to come for a long time because he has so much to say. He knows so many people. He did so many interesting things, from being a professional baseball player to a teacher to again finding his way into the Native American art field. He's what we refer to as an Indian art trader. That's what all these guys were kind of referred to as in the early 70s, late 60s up until today.  I've been trying to interview these individuals while they're here. Unfortunately we've lost a few, and we're going to lose a lot more.It's a subculture that's very unique in the whole of Americana. A group of non-Native individuals who dedicated their lives to Native American arts. Most of them work directly with different individuals, contemporary native artists, but also having this great love for historical material and really understanding it like very few can.So it was a real gem of a podcast.  I think you'll really enjoy this one with Native American art expert Terry DeWald.

Shelley Niro (Kanien'kehaka) grew up watching her father craft faux tomahawks to sell to tourists who flocked to her birthplace, Niagara Falls. In this episode of the Hyperallergic podcast, she reflects on how witnessing him create these objects planted the seeds for her brilliant multidisciplinary art practice spanning film, sculpture, beading, and photography. The National Museum of the American Indian in New York displayed a retrospective of her work titled Shelley Niro: 500 Year Itch, a traveling exhibit which will be on display next at the National Gallery of Canada, in Ottawa, Ontario. She joined us in our Brooklyn studio for an interview, where she reflected on growing up in the Six Nations of the Grand River, the Native artists she discovered on her dentist's wall but rarely encountered in a museum before the mid-'90s, and her latest obsession with 500 million-year-old fossils.The music and sound effects in this episode are from the films “Honey Moccasin” and “Tree” by Shelley Niro, courtesy of the artist. Subscribe to Hyperallergic on Apple Podcasts, and anywhere else you listen to podcasts.(00:00) - Intro (03:02) - Beginnings of “500 Year Itch” Retrospective (04:18) - About “Honey Moccasin” (06:47) - Early Life (08:42) - The Six Nations of the Grand River (12:12) - Going to Art School and Native Representation in Museums (19:12) - Work in Painting (22:32) - Work in Photography (24:53) - On Niagara Falls (26:29) - History Behind Grand River Reserve (27:58) - The 1990s and Institutional Perspectives on Native American Art (31:12) - “Mohawks and Beehives” Series (34:51) - Why “500 Year Itch”?

For more than 50 years, Joe Feddersen (Colville) and G. Peter Jemison (Seneca, Heron Clan) have been creating works that extend Native heritage and enrich the stories told by American art. Through an ambidextrous approach to craft and figuration, Feddersen finds consonance between contemporary life and traditional forms and iconographies, while Jemison highlights the continuities and ruptures of Native experiences in our shared spaces. With wide-ranging community education, preservation, and advocacy projects, Feddersen and Jemison show that new paths emerge from the old.

This episode features an interview with Sháńdíín Brown (Diné), continuing our series talking to participants in the Momus residency "Estuaries: An International Indigenous Art Criticism Residency" co-hosted with Forge Project. Lauren Wetmore talks to Sháńdíín Brown, a citizen of the Navajo Nation and the first Henry Luce Curatorial Fellow for Native American Art at Rhode Island School of Design (RISD) Museum, about two very different texts written almost a century apart: Laura Tohe's "There is No Word for Feminism in My Language" (2000) and Uriah S. Hollister's "The Navajo and His Blanket" (1903). Brown speaks about these two texts in the context of the exhibition she has curated Diné Textiles: Nizhónígo Hadadít'eh (They Are Beautifully Dressed), which opens in early September at the RISD Museum. In highlighting the important role of women in Navajo culture, and Brown's own work as a facilitator of that culture, she speaks against racist writing about Indigenous art: "When someone so boldly says 'the Navajos are going to go extinct,'" Brown says of Hollister's text, "you're like, me being here, having Native people in museums, having Native people invited to be collaborators, and working in art history is a big deal."Diné Textiles: Nizhónígo Hadadít'eh (They Are Beautifully Dressed) curated by Sháńdíín Brown, will be on view from September 2nd, 2023 to September 29th, 2024.Thanks to our Editor, Jacob Irish; Assistant Producer, Chris Andrews; and many thanks to Gulf Coast Magazine's Toni Beauchamp Critical Art Writing Prize for their support.This episode has been generously supported by the Mellon Foundation.

In order of appearance:• Jamie Schulze: Executive Director, SWAIA • Bo Joe: Navajo/Uté Silversmith (Booth # LIN W 757)• Barbara Teller Ornelas:  Navajo Weaver (Booth # LIN W 774)• Jared Chavez: San Felipe Silversmith (Booth # FR N 306)• Russell Sanchez: San Ildefonso Pueblo Potter (Booth # LIN E 711)• Kathleen Wall: Jemez Pueblo Pottery Artist  (Booth # PLZ 78)• Marla Allison: Laguna Pueblo Artist (Booth # LIN E 730)• Mateo Romero: Artist and Activist (Booth # LIN E 739)• Duane Maktima: Hopi/Laguna Silversmith• Susan Folwell: Santa Clara Pueblo Potter• Tony Abeyta: Navajo Oil PainterSo one of my favorite times of the year is the third week in August, because that's Indian Market weekend in Santa Fe. it's a remarkable event. You have a thousand different artisans show up in this big mix of culture and artwork.You have contemporary, you have traditional, all of it's made by the artisans. They all come together for this one weekend in Santa Fe. It's such a special event. I've been doing it since the early nineties and I would always bring my kids. Each of the children would get to pick out a piece to add to their collection. I highly encourage people to go and visit at least once. It's not only a special time for the collectors, but the artisans too. It's part of a tradition for so many families from across the country, Native artists that come and get to interact with collectors directly, which is wonderful because it's hard for them often because they may be living in remote areas.I've done a lot of podcasts over the last six years, and during those times I've interviewed lots of native artists that have participated in the Santa Fe Indian market. It's been a big part of their life and their family's life, so I figured it would be a great time during Indian Market weekend to rehash and take another look/listen to some of these different artists that we've had on the podcast over the years.I usually don't do podcasts that are in the moment. I like to do podcasts that'll be relevant during any time frame. In this case, I would like people to be able to go and visit these artists at Indian Market. So it's a wonderful kind of review of what Indian Market and Santa Fe as a whole is to so many different artists. We're also very blessed to be able to sponsor the Best of Show Award award for the next five years for SWAIA. I hope people go out and get to do what I've always done and love doing - connecting with and supporting amazing Native American artisans.We invite members of the media and influencers to take event photos and post them using the hashtag #santafeindianmarket.

For the first time in its history, the St. Louis Art Museum (SLAM) has curated an exhibition of work by modern Indigenous American artists. “Action-Abstraction Redefined” showcases 20th-century pieces paired with an audio guide featuring their creators. Alex Marr, the museum's associate curator of Native American Art, talks with STLPR senior reporter Jeremy D. Goodwin about SLAM's history of collecting, and not showing, Native American art — and how this exhibition aims to bring visibility to Native histories.

Returning to the podcast is Jamie Schulze, the executive director of SWAIA, the arts organization that puts on Santa Fe Indian Market every August in Santa Fe, New Mexico. Jamie joins us to talk about the 2023 market, the role of SWAIA within the Native American art market, and the full schedule of this year's market. Native American Art magazine is the official magazine of Santa Fe Indian Market, which takes place August 19 and 20 in Santa Fe. Find out more at swaia.org and nativeamericanartmagazine.com

Where do we even begin? Poteet Victory is one of the world's most in-demand and collectible contemporary Native American artists. Although Victory's work is abstract, his Cherokee-Choctaw influence still shines through his paintings. Poteet called in from his art studio in downtown Santa Fe, NM. His story is full of name drops, different zip codes, American history and success. Victory was first approached as an artist by his mentor, Harold Stevenson, who is famous for the controversial painting, The New Adam, which is now in the Guggenheim's permanent collection. The art scene he describes is out of movie. In NYC spending time with Andy Warhol to what he calls his "start" working for a t-shirt graphic company in Maui (owned by a group who believed Jesus lived in an alien spaceship). His largest work, a 13ft tall and 60ft wide mural, still stands unfinished due to its controversial content which was rejected by the museum half way through its completion. The mural aimed to depict the Trail of Tears; the deadly and forceful migration of Native Americans to Oklahoma.  He is a celebrated artist recently added to the Hall of Fame for Native American Art. He has served in the military, lived all over the USA, retains celebrity clientele and yet, remains a humble spirit. Enjoy this episode with guest, Poteet Victory, and learn the many lives he has lived with his years.  

I had Jamie Schulze say today, she is just a terrific individual and I just love her upbeat, happy demeanor. You can just feel in her something that is giving. She's the perfect person to be the executive director of SWAIA. Jaimie is someone who really cares about the artists and understands the process. She has the responsibility of promoting not only the art, but the cultural sensitivity of participants that represent over 200 different tribes. So it's a big organization to control and this is her first full year doing it. We talk about some of the upcoming things that will happen at Santa Fe Indian Market, which is this year during the third week of August. It was interesting to hear her backstory growing up on the reservation in Montana, as well how she ended up at SWAIA and her commitment to the organization. Medicine Man Gallery is going to be sponsoring the best of show award for Santa Fe Indian Market for the next five years, which is a big deal because I've been going to the event for over 30 years and I feel a strong connection to the artisans there. To be able to give back to that community is very rewarding on a personal level.All that being said, it was very fun to get to talk to Jamie Schulze and I hope you enjoy the podcast as much as I did.

On July 4, The Show is listening back to some of our favorite conversations. We'll hear about the challenges of defining Native American Art, how Hollywood portrays the South, and we'll visit the Hall of Flame Museum in Papago Park. That and more on The Show.

Painter Nocona Burgess drops by our studio to talk about his artwork, his journey as an artist, and his involvement in art shows around the country, including the upcoming Santa Fe Indian Market in Santa Fe, New Mexico. Nocona will have a booth at the event, which takes place on August 19 and 20, 2023. Today's episode is sponsored by Native American Art magazine, the official magazine of Santa Fe Indian Market.

In the myths and fairytales, everything teems with sentience and agency... Everything is alive. There are talking trees and singing stones and hedges that move of their own will. Mirrors speak. Swords dance. There are flying carpets and far-seeing spyglasses and cloaks and boots that leap by themselves. This pervasive insistence in the old stories that absolutely everything is alive — that everything has eyes — butts up against modern rationality and therefore gets marginalized as childish 'fantasy.' But as science discovers more and more that the lines between living and dead, conscious and not, human and non-human are not as clearcut as we'd once imagined, as science starts to unpack the sentience of trees and the latent life within clay, we start to (re)discover that 'things' are not just dead objects at all, and that this whole world hums with animacy. And so the vision of a world of persons, a world with eyes, is not simply a child's eye view — it's actually much closer to the way things are. In taking our attention to the least of things, and remembering that we inhabit a world with eyes, we open up the possibility of redefining our relationship with the cosmos itself. Sparked to life by a conversation with sculptor Rose B. Simpson and featuring original music by Peia, Marya Stark, Sidibe, Ben Murphy, and Andy Aquarius, this episode takes us on a journey through talking stones and living clay and animate bells and drums into a world in which everything has eyes, everything has agency, everything is a portal to the infinite — even the seemingly 'inanimate.' Even... your car. Listen on a good sound system, at a time when you can devote your full attention.Support the show

In this podcast, Cray interviews John Lukavic, the Andrew W. Mellon Curator of Native Arts and head of the Native Arts Department at the Denver Art Museum. John explains that his department includes indigenous arts of North America, arts of Africa, and arts of Oceania, but they are kept separate to maintain their identity. His primary focus is on indigenous arts of North America, and he emphasizes the importance of using indigenous ways of knowing, being seen, and doing as a guiding light for their work.The Denver Art Museum has always focused on contemporary indigenous art, rather than trying to preserve the ways of the past. Their indigenous art collection includes about 18,000 works of art that span from the 20th to the 21st century, with the biggest regional groups being the Southwest, Plains, and Northwest coast. Due to the nature of the historical works, the museum has to do rotations quite often.The conversation also touches on the ebb and flow of attention given to indigenous arts by non-native art institutions and the recent groundswell of interest in indigenous voices, which may be attributed to social events such as Black Lives Matter protests and the intersectionality movement. The conversation revolves around the Denver Art Museum's collection and how they acquire new pieces. They often work with collectors to build a collection that is donated to the museum over time or receive donations from individual donors.Massacre in America: Wounded Kneehttps://www.denverartmuseum.org/en/object/2016.174List of artworks and credit lines mentioned in John Lukavic's interview forBeyond the Art podcast5.1.23- Jamie Okuma (Luiseño, Shoshone-Bannock, Wailaki, and Okinawan), with contributions by Cameron Linton, Sandra Okuma, Pat Pruitt, Keri Ataumbi, and Tania Larson, Untitled, 2018–19.

Art historian Matthew Milliner (Wheaton College) reflects on one of the most powerful and moving Christian icons: “The Virgin of the Passion,” AKA, “Our Lady of Perpetual Help,” which he develops in his book, Mother of the Lamb: The Story of a Global Icon. First painted as a response to failed Christian Empire and the violence of the Crusades, then mass produced and proliferated as a norm of Christian aesthetic worship, the icon offers a unique filter for contemporary understanding of faith and power; the Christian temptation to nationalism, empire, and violence; the meaning and visual expression of suffering love; and the beauty of engaged, solidarity and prophetic witness. This episode was made possible by a grant from the Tyndale House Foundation.Support the Yale Center for Faith & Culture's $25,000 End of Year Matching Campaign by giving online today: https://faith.yale.edu/giveShow NotesClick to view: “Virgin of the Passion, late 15th century” Andrea Rico di Candia, Cretan, active 1451–1492, tempera on wood panel (Princeton University Art Museum)Click to get a copy of Matthew Milliner's Mother of the Lamb: The Story of a Global IconAbout Matthew MillinerMatthew Milliner is Associate Professor of Art History at Wheaton College.

Last spring, more than 100 Oregonians posed for portraits on empty pedestals in downtown Portland that used to house sculptures of former presidents. The portraits are the brainchild of indigenous artist Jeffrey Gibson, who was invited by Portland Art Museum to create a multimedia installation both inside and outside the museum. Gibson, a member of the Mississippi Band of Choctaw Indians and of Cherokee descent, created the portraits, glass panels, and a timeline of notable dates in Oregon's Indigenous history. We talk to Gibson, and to Kathleen Ash-Milby, curator of Native American Art at the Portland Art Museum, about the exhibit.
